Competitive and bent on catching up with L'Oreal. Efficient and process-oriented, but creativity hampered by hierarchy. - Anonymous employee Henkel Employee Review

This is a perspective based on working in the global office. It is very political and hierarchal. It has a "Devil Wears Prada" environment and sometimes you wonder who you can trust. It is management based on fear. Employee feedback is very subjective, with comments sometimes going like, "Don't be so [insert nationality here]." Consumer needs is not the focus, but rather what management thinks will work or not.
